Find@HKUL is a search tool that helps users discover the HKUL collection through a single search box in one go.

The tool has four tabs, with the default set to the Books + Articles tab. Each tab encompasses a unique dataset. The Books tab enables users to search holdings of the HKUL library catalogue (Dragon). One can also place requests, view the circulation record or even connect to HKALL in this environment. The Articles tab provides access to a large index of articles, conference papers, overseas theses and book chapters. Searching the Articles tab is similar to searching a huge cross-disciplinary database, with full text articles just a click or two away. The Extended Search tab offers a real-time connection to specialized databases, resources which might not be covered under the Articles tab, providing deeper searches into the HKUL collection.

The simple search interface of Find@HKUL facilitates novice searchers to find pertinent information in support of their learning needs. At the same time, the ease of information discovery helps capitalize on the library resources subscribed for the community.

The Multi-purpose Zone area located at the Main Library Level 3 will be closed.
Dates: 9th, 10th, and 13th of September
Time: 8:00am to 7:00pm
Please consider using our other study space in the Main Library, the Oval on 1/F Knowles Building or the Chi Wah Learning Commons if you cannot find a suitable place on Level 3.
Thank you very much for your valuable support to our Libraries

With effect from 2 September 2013, the University Libraries has resumed the advisory service for students in the Chi Wah Learning Commons (智華館). The University Libraries will offer assistance to students in:
• using the library services and facilities;
• formulating search strategies;
• searching the information resources, such as Dragon (the library catalogue) and the article databases; and
• setting up personal consultations for in-depth information search.

The advisory service is available Monday to Friday from 1 pm to 5 pm in Zone R, i.e. the designated Student Advisory Services Zone shown in green in the following floor plan.

The Libraries aims to provide high quality advisory service to facilitate student learning experience at the Learning Commons which is developing into a campus hub for student-centered learning activities.

You are most welcome to share with us what you think about the Libraries’ advisory service at the Chi Wah Learning Commons by sending us an email to libis@hku.hk.
